I’ve included pictures below of most of my grocery shopping trips for the month. There’s about $67 worth of groceries that I forgot to photograph. I made a large batch of homemade sugar-free applesauce in March that I stored in the freezer. Lunches Included: leftovers. egg salad sandwiches, fruit.

Put Away the Leftovers Another way to increase your savings quickly is to try as much as you can to save money from your designated weekly budget. Instead, put that leftover cash into your savings accounts. From $300 a week to the weeks where you have some of that leftover, find one week where you spend absolutely nothing.

Designate one night a week as “raid the fridge’ night to get rid of leftovers. Everyone’s plate might look different, but you’ll at least use up the leftovers and reduce the waste. If you don’t think the food in the fridge will be eaten before it goes bad, place leftovers in a freezer container, label, and store in the freezer.
